It's no secret that porn films are made for men, and such films are also shot by men. The problem with this genre is that the creators of such products do not care about the interests of women and their attitude to sex. Erika Lust is one of the few female directors in the industry and the only one who makes porn films specifically for women. (Caution! Nude).

Erica Lust is a famous figure in the world of porn and erotic cinema. She is not only a director of adult films, but also the owner of her own production company. This enables a woman to create a movie on her own, from start to finish, the way she wants to see it.

Women love sex too. We all exist on this planet because of sex. Most porn films show a sexuality that I don't share. My films are alternative porn. Not what we're used to.

In such a simple and accessible way, Erica talks about her work in an interview with the press. On PornHub, according to statistics of 2018, more than 1000 requests from users are registered every second. At the same time, the overwhelming number of videos on the world's largest porno service are devoted to "macho" - men who satisfy their passion, while neglecting the interests of the lady.

"Boobs and asses" - the problem of "machismo" in the modern Internet

Lust says that most adult films show a sexuality that she doesn't share. Therefore, the woman began to shoot special porn, in which both partners get pleasure. A woman director promotes her work mainly on social networks, but finding them, even with some effort, is not at all easy.

Erica Lust claims that social networks specifically filter out such works and the attitude of the moderators towards them is always extremely biased. The woman is sure that there is a certain “shadow ban” on Instagram, which partially or completely blocks content with erotic connotations in search results.

After Lust created a post about it, several other artists, writers and video creators wrote to her who faced a similar problem. That is why Erica is sure that her suspicions are not at all unfounded. BBC journalists on their own initiative contacted the Instagram administration and asked them a question about such a "shadow ban".

The office of the company denies the existence of such a bias towards posts that do not violate the rules of the service, but at the same time they clarified that if complaints from users come to the publication, they are forced to work with such content, including completely blocking it.

Also on the social network, they recalled that the author of a post that was blocked, always has the right to appeal and challenge the decision of the moderators to remove the content. In the event that measures were taken by mistake, the post is returned back.

Lisa Williams, whose team also shoots erotic content, also complained about the blocking of content on her Instagram account @thehotbedcollective. At the same time, the woman focuses on the fact that her platform is not entertainment, but sets itself exclusively educational goals.

They complained about our posts - and they were removed, although there were no violations in them. We had an illustration of female masturbation and it was filmed very quickly.

Williams is outraged by this attitude and is sure that this is a double standard. Fasts that have been banned do not cause any damage to morality and do not offend anyone, but simply help to expand women's knowledge about their bodies.

Erica Lust argues that what is acceptable on social networks today strongly "smacks of machismo." She believes that one simple formula works: “Tits! And ass! and "My car and my cigar!"

Sex lumen problems

A 2019 BBC poll found that more than a third of women in the UK derive their knowledge of sex from pornography. It is also known that 53% of adolescent boys believe that adult videos give a real picture of sex life and gender relations.

That is why Erica Lust believes that modern society needs high-quality pornography as a source of sexual knowledge.

Our society has a huge need for sex education and, of course, young people watch porn Sex is interesting to them, they want to know more about it, to understand it, so, yes, they watch porn.

Unfortunately, "ethical porn", according to Lisa, is not easy to find on the Internet. Films in which there is no motive for the exploitation of a woman by a man is a great rarity and they are simply lost in the general mass of products aimed exclusively at the representatives of the stronger sex.

It is also sad that if high-quality pornographic films with an acceptable plot appear somewhere, then you have to pay for their viewing. Of course, in such cases, young people choose more affordable products that are not of the highest quality, in which there is a stereotypical attitude towards women.

One of the actresses filming for Erica Lust, who identified herself to the journalists Heidi, said that at the age of 13-14, when she just began to be interested in sex, the Internet was her main teacher. She believes that she belongs to the first generation, whose formation of sexuality was influenced precisely by pornography from the network.

Lisa Williams is convinced that women are sexy and enjoy watching porn as much as men. But at the same time, many deny themselves this pleasure, as they are disappointed with films representing mainstream porn.

We want to see a variety of bodies, passion, love, tenderness. And we not only want to satisfy our lust, we want new ideas.

Porn actress Heidi also notes that she enjoys working with Erica Lust, because her films feature people with different body types, including overweight. Heidi herself has quite curvaceous forms and she has always lacked on the screen women with a body like hers.

Hopefully, people like Lust and Williams will be able to revolutionize the porn industry and make adult movies interesting and rewarding for both men and women.

By the way, you knew that not only men and women have different tastes in porn. It turns out that preferences differ even among users of different mobile platforms.
